Sharing Alaska's Future
 
Alaska's Future co-chairs have traveled across Alaska to promote the urgent need for a broad based budget solution that uses a portion of Perm Fund earnings. Business and community organizations - plus private businesses - have hosted speaking events, asked questions and engaged in this critical discussion. 

Hundreds of Alaskans have also joined Alaska's Future and submitted permission slips encouraging legislators to act this session.
